A Just Giving page set up to support the family of a much loved postman has raised more than £8,500.
Paul Dunmill from Sutton Valence, known on his rounds as Postie Paul , died in hospital on Saturday after contracting Covid-19.
Paul was happiest with a cup of tea in hand
Remembering his father, Craig Dunmill said: The Royal Mail was his life. He loved his job and all his customers and colleagues. He loved customers dogs too and they would often sit and wait for him. Sometimes even if he didn t have mail for people he would still pull up to see the dogs if they were outside.
